Psychiatric and neuroimmunologic etiologies have been proposed although the exact etiology remains unknown. This study sought to review non-DSRD diagnoses at a large quaternary medical center specializing in the diagnosis of DSRD and compare clinical characteristics between those diagnosed with DSRD and those with non-DSRD diagnoses.Methods: The authors performed a single-center retrospective, chart-based, review of referrals for developmental regression in individuals with Down syndrome.Results: Two hundred and sixty-six individuals were evaluated for DSRD and of these, 54 (20%) ultimately had alternative diagnoses. Individuals with DSRD were more likely to have shorter nadir to clinical symptoms (p = 0.01, 95% CI: 0.36-0.47) and have preceding triggers (p < 0.001, 95% CI: 1.13-1.43) compared to those with alternative diagnoses. Individuals with non-DSRD diagnoses were more likely to be born premature (p = 0.01, 95% CI: 0.51-0.87) and have a history of epilepsy (p = 0.01, 95% CI: 0.23-0.77) but were also less likely to have a history of cytokine abnormalities on bloodwork (p < 0.001, 95% CI: 1.19-1.43) and have catatonia (p < 0.001, 95% CI: 1.54-2.17). The majority of alternative diagnoses (41/54, 76%) were autism spectrum disorder. In these cases, symptoms were more likely to be longstanding (symptoms > 12 months) and earlier onset (median 8 years, IQR: 6-11). Other diagnoses included epilepsy (5/54, 9%), Celiac disease (5/54, 9%), cerebrovascular disease (3/54, 6%).Conclusions: This study identifies that 20% of individuals referred with concerns for DSRD have alternative diagnoses. The majority of these diagnoses were autism, but rare treatable conditions were also identified, highlighting the importance of a thorough neurodiagnostic assessment.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":"2085-2091"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10004550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Caregivers completed additional measures of their children's adaptive, social, behavioral, and emotional functioning.Results: Parents and youth generally agreed on the PedsQL, with the exception of the Social Functioning domain, which youth rated higher. The parent rated PedsQL did not correlate with most areas of caregiver-rated functioning; however, there were significant negative correlations between irritability and family functioning.Conclusion: Limitations of this study included small sample size; broad range of intellectual functioning; lack of sample diversity; and likely recruiting bias for a drug treatment study.

We report prescribing rates for specific drugs, drug treatment duration, and reasons for drug discontinuation when applicable.Results: Sertraline, mirtazapine, and fluoxetine were the three most commonly prescribed medications to treat comorbid depression for this patient population. Among 241 drug starts, 123 (49%) drug treatments were continued at the final reviewed follow-up visit (average treatment duration of ± 0.72 years). The most common reason for discontinuation across all medications prescribed was loss of or lack of effectiveness.Conclusion: This study raises concern that standard of care pharmacological treatments for depression in individuals with ASD may be less effective than in neurotypical populations. There remains a need to develop effective interventions for depression specifically tailored to the needs of individuals with ASD.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":"1969-1975"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41131574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants completed the Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (PRMQ) which includes questions about PM vs. RM (memory type), environment-cued vs. self-cued (cue), and short vs. long delay (delay).Results: Autistic people reported significantly more PM and RM difficulties than the comparison group. Both groups reported more difficulties with PM (vs. RM), self-cued (vs. environment-cued), and short (vs. long) delay. No significant interactions were observed. Among autistic people, younger age was associated with reporting more PM and RM difficulties, but this pattern was not observed among non-autistic people.Conclusions: Autistic people may be at reduced risk for memory problems as they age, compared to their same-age non-autistic peers.

This study provides the first population-based data on the prevalence and expression of ASD among adolescents in a large US metropolitan region.Methods: Active multiple source ASD surveillance of adolescents aged 16-years was conducted according to the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network method in a four-county New Jersey metropolitan region. Prevalence estimates are provided, characteristics are described and comparison of the distribution and characteristics of ASD is offered for this cohort, at 8 and 16-years.Results: ASD prevalence was 17.7 per 1000 (95% CI: 16.3-19.2)]. One-in-55 males and one in 172 females were identified with ASD. High-SES was positively associated with ASD and White adolescents had higher ASD prevalence (22.2 per 1000) than Hispanic adolescents (13.1 per 1000). One in four study-confirmed individuals with ASD did not have an ASD diagnosis. A majority of ASD adolescents (58.8%) had a co-occurring neuropsychiatric disorder.

The purpose is to investigate how ToM deficits may impact driving behaviors and decision-making, ultimately informing the development of tailored interventions and training programs for autistic drivers. We conducted a series of driving simulations using a custom-built driving simulator, capturing multimodal data including driving performance metrics, attention allocation, and physiological responses. Participants were categorized based on NEPSY scores, which assess ToM abilities, and self-reported autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis. Driving tasks were designed to simulate real-world scenarios, particularly focusing on intersections and merging, where ToM skills are crucial for safe navigation. Our analysis revealed differences in driving behaviors among participants with varying ToM abilities as determined through the NEPSY. Participants with lower NEPSY scores exhibited less smooth driving behaviors, increased risk-taking tendencies, and differences in attention allocation compared to those with higher scores. Alternatively, individuals with ASD displayed comparable driving patterns overall. ToM abilities influence driving behaviors and decision-making, particularly in complex social driving scenarios. Tailored interventions addressing ToM deficits and stress management could improve driving safety and accessibility for autistic individuals. This study underscores the importance of considering social cognitive factors in driving education and licensure pathways, aiming for greater inclusivity and accessibility in transportation systems.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":"2124-2140"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12069486/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142080396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
